Do you think as the two of you read and work through the book that he will come to see the need to have OW totally out of your lives for the two of you to heal? I mean if she has spread these kinds of stories around, the church, the CPA, and who knows who else.
I would think there is no way he can't come to see that she can stay in your lives and the two of you rebuild.
I have not read the book you are reading but have seen it recommended on here more than once.
Maybe a little more time for him to see this on his own? With of course some inspiration from the 'Lady of the Manor'!
